How to get your organization to value data visualization – and you!
Okay, so YOU get data visualization and how it can transform an organization, but maybe your colleagues (and boss) still cling to their beloved spreadsheets. Or maybe they’ve tried data visualization but produced useless 3D pie charts or packed bubbles charts.
How can you change their mindset? How can you turn your organization into one that is data-visualization literate and that will appreciate all that you, the data visualization practitioner, can bring to the table?
Spoiler alert: don’t show them charts from Minard or Nightingale.
In this session, best-selling author and hall of fame Tableau Zen Master Steve Wexler will share potent tactics to get people to “get” data visualization. You will see
• How to use the “gateway drug” to data visualization to move people away from cross tabs.
• How to make your dashboards irresistible, and at the same time reinforce good behavior and good results and change bad behavior and poor results.
• How to win a data visualization argument (without coming off as a complete jerk).
Armed with the insights Steve will share, you can get your organization to value what you do and show your organization how to use data visualization to make better decisions—faster!
